Disappearance: A Map

A Meditation on Death & Loss in the High Latitudes

Weaving together personal experience and wilderness lore, this poetic journey through Alaska and Alaskan history is “a potent map of love and loss and how we find our way back home through the landscape of the heart”

A lyrical meditation on the meaning of loss amid the wilderness landscape of Alaska’s high latitudes tracks the incidence of disappearance–hikers, explorers, and others–along with the losses of the culture of the native peoples and natural resources of Alaska.
